11:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Room: 26-414 (Kolker room)
This session will show how to use the batch schedulers/resource-managers SLURM & HTCondor to manage your computational tasks, distributing them across the shared resources. Depending on your workflow, this may provide an easy way to run your calculations in parallel, shortening time-to-result and eliminating some manual tasks.
